Lecture by Dr. José Calvo Telloin the lecture series “Praxis der Digital Humanities”

The lecture series “Praxis der Digital Humanities” will take place within the framework of the Master 'Digital Humanities'. It is open to all interested parties, also from other courses or from outside the university, and will be designed as a video conference with lecture and discussion possibility.

Libraries are an important piece of the academic and research sector which have been under­going major changes in recent decades. In this talk, José Calvo Tello explains his way from Digital Humanities research into the State and University Library Göttingen. In his talk, he will defend that Digital Humanities and Libraries can profit from one another and will show some examples of how coding can support tasks related to subject cataloguing and acquisition of research publications.

A special feature of this year's program is that some of the talks will be inserted into the series program not only digitally, but virtually, so to speak. These talks take place online in other event contexts. Instead of repeating them in our program, we get to be guests at the other lecture series. We thank our colleagues in Berlin (Digital History, Prof. Dr. Torsten Hiltmann) and Dresden (Applied Linguistics, Prof. Dr. Simon Meier-Vieracker) for their cooperation.
